FOX61x | LECO1 INTRODUCTION
2 Introduction
2.1 General
This document describes the architecture and functions of the LECO1 unit and shows, how this
unit is commissioned and operated as part of the FOX61x.
The LECO1 unit is a 1-slot wide service unit of FOX61x. It supports eight codirectional or two
contradirectional E0 (64 kbit/s) full duplex data interfaces according to ITU-T G.703.
• With the leco1_r1d ESW the LECO1 unit provides the codirectional interface type.
• With the leca1_r1a ESW the LECO1 unit provides the contradirectional interface type.
The interface timing is synchronized to the FOX61x network element PETS (plesiochronous
equipment timing source).
The LECO1 unit supports the connection of two DTEs via a synchronous TDM network. At both
ends the DTE is connected to a LECO1 unit which converts the E0 data signal to a 64 kbit/s dig-
ital signal (and vice versa). The digital signal is transported through the TDM network to a FOX-
61x network element where the LECO1 unit converts the digital signal back to the E0 data sig-
nal (and vice versa).

The LECO1 unit as a FOX61x TDM unit provides PBUS (FOX61x TDM bus) access. LECO1
has a physical access capacity of 4 x 2 Mbit/s towards the FOX61x internal cross connection
backplane, PBUS, allowing access of the eight or two data user ports with 8 x 64 kbit/s or 2 x 64
kbit/s.
The following network features help to enhance the systems availability:
• 1+1 linear trail protection switching.
• 1+1 linear subnetwork connection protection switching.
LECO1 is connected to a TDM transport unit as e.g. a SAMO1 unit via the PBUS in the back-
plane of FOX61x.

4.4.2 Cable 16 Pairs, DIN 41612 to open End

An open ended or unterminated cable with 16 pairs is used to connect the eight or two inter-
faces of the LECO1 unit to the MDF. The MDF end of the cable is open ended.
The length of the cable can be specified (minimum length 2 m).
Latching clips must be used to secure the cable to the LECO1 front connector.
For details on LECO1 cables, please refer to [1KHW002498] Product Guide “FOX61x cables”.
4.4.3 Fixing the Cables to the Cable Tray

The cables must be attached to the cable tray of the FOX615 R2 and FOX615 or the corre-
sponding device of the FOX612 or FOX611.
The figure below shows the cable/cable tray assembly of the FOX615 R2 and FOX615.

Figure 7: Side view of the FOX615 R2 and FOX615 cable tray and cables
Please note:
The cable route on the cable tray should follow approximately the projection of the
unit slot on the cable tray.
With the FOX612 and FOX611 the cable tray functionality is implemented differently and
depends on the type of installation (rack-, wall-mounted).

FOX61x | LECO1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
5 Functional Description
This chapter gives the detailed functional description of the LECO1 unit in the FOX61x subrack.
5.1 Data Interface Functions
5.1.1 Synchronous transmission

The LECO1 unit supports the codirectional or contradirectional E0 interface according to ITU-T
G.703.
5.1.1.1 Codirectional interface

The term “codirectional” describes an interface where the information and its associated timing
are transported in the same direction.
The interface carries three signals for the transmit and receive direction on one balanced wire
pair per direction:
• 64 kbit/s data signal (transmit or receive data),
• 64 kHz timing signal (bit timing),
• 8 kHz timing signal (octet timing).
bit Transmit data, bit timing, octet timing

DTE timing LECO1
E0 port E0 port
Receive data, bit timing, octet timing
Figure 8: Codirectional timing
Typically in the DTE the bit timing is looped from the receive direction to the transmit direction.
On the LECO1 unit in transmit direction, the bit and octet timing are recovered from the transmit
data signal. The data are written to a 6 octet buffer with the recovered timing and finally
mapped, octet by octet, to a 64 kbit/s time slot with the NE timing (PETS). In case the transmit
signal is not synchronous to the NE timing the data rate is adapted with the repetition or elimina-
tion of a complete octet.
The transmit signal is monitored for a loss of signal condition or a loss of 8 kHz timing condition.
Any of these conditions activates an alarm and activates the AIS insertion in transmit direction.
The 8 kHz timing monitoring and consequent AIS insertion can be enabled.
Please note:
When the 8 kHz timing monitoring is disabled, but the 8 kHz timing signal is still
present, it will be used for the octet aligned mapping of user data to time slots.
Please note:
The transmit data signal cannot be used to synchronize the network element.
In receive direction, the user data rate is derived from the NE timing. The data and timing sig-
nals are fed to the interface.
In case of an alarm condition an alarm is reported and an AIS is inserted in receive direction.
In case of a loss of signal in transmit direction the octet timing in receive direction can be
removed.
5.1.1.2 Contradirectional interface

The term “contradirectional” describes an interface where the timing for the receive and for the
transmit direction is provided by the DCE, i.e. by the LECO1 unit.

In receive direction the information and its associated timing are transported in the same direc-
tion.
In transmit direction the information and its associated timing are transported in opposite direc-
tions.
The interface carries the
• 64 kbit/s data signal for the transmit and receive direction on one balanced wire pair per
direction.
• 64 kHz timing (bit timing) and the 8 kHz timing (octet timing) for the transmit and receive
direction on one balanced wire pair per direction.

Figure 9: Contradirectional timing
In the DTE the transmit bit and octet timing are use to generate the transmit data signal.
On the LECO1 unit the transmit data are mapped, octet by octet, to a 64 kbit/s time slot with the
NE timing (PETS).
The transmit data signal is monitored for a loss of signal (LOS) condition. A LOS condition acti-
vates an alarm and activates the AIS insertion in transmit direction.
Please note:
The transmit data signal cannot be used to synchronize the network element.
In receive direction, the user data rate is derived from the NE timing. The data and timing sig-
nals are fed to the interface.
In case of an alarm condition an alarm is reported and an AIS is inserted in receive direction.
In case of a loss of signal in transmit direction the octet timing on the transmit timing signal can
be removed.
5.1.2 Coding and Octet Timing

According to ITU-T G.703 the 8 kHz timing must be generated by the controlling equipment, i.e.
the LECO1 unit, but it is not mandatory for the DTE on the other side of the interface to either
utilize or generate the 8 kHz timing signal. Therefore the 8 kHz timing monitoring and conse-
quent AIS insertion can be enabled or disabled.
Please note:
The 8 kHz timing monitoring is only applicable for the codirectional interface type.
5.2 Data and Timing Handling

The 64 kbit/s data interfaces of the LECO1 unit are bit sequence independent.

The data handling can be controlled with the following mechanisms. For the loop and conse-
quent action handling please refer to section 5.2.3 Loops and consequent Actions (on page 20).
• Decoder:
The decoder extracts the user data, bit and octet timing from the transmit signal.
• Signal monitor:
The transmit signal is monitored for a loss of signal condition or a loss of 8 kHz timing condi-
tion.
The 8 kHz timing monitoring can be enabled.
• Consequent action (transmit signal):
A loss of signal condition or a loss of 8 kHz timing condition (if enabled) activates the follow-
ing consequent actions.
− Data AIS insertion in transmit direction.
− 8 kHz timing removal in receive direction (configurable, loss of signal condition only).
• Buffer:
The buffer with a depth of six octets adapts the transmit data timing to the NE timing.
Positive and negative octet slips are counted.

The data handling can be controlled with the following mechanisms. For the loop and conse-
quent action handling please refer to section 5.2.3 Loops and consequent Actions (on page 20).
• Decoder:
The decoder extracts the user data from the transmit signal.
• Signal monitor:
The transmit signal is monitored for a loss of signal condition.
A loss of signal condition activates the following consequent actions.
− Data AIS insertion in transmit direction (configurable).
− 8 kHz timing removal in transmit direction (configurable).
5.2.3 Loops and consequent Actions

Please refer to Figure 10 or to Figure 11 for the implementation of the control and maintenance
mechanisms.
• Loop 2b:
The maintenance function “Back-To-Back-2b” loop loops the receive data signal back to the
transmit direction. With an active loop 2b
− the receive data signal is replaced by AIS,
− the 8 kHz timing in receive direction can be disabled (configurable).
For details please refer to section 7.2 Loops (on page 27).
• Loop 3b:
The maintenance function “Front-To-Front-3b” loop loops the transmit data signal back to the
receive direction. With an active loop 3b the transmit data signal is replaced by AIS.
For details please refer to section 7.2 Loops (on page 27).
• Protection switch:
In receive direction a working and a protecting channel can be configured. Switching criteria
are “trail signal fail” and “trail signal degrade” from the P12 transport unit. With CAS enabled
in the CTP configuration, CAS AIS is an additional switching criterion.
• Consequent action (receive signal):
A detected failure in the receive signal activates the following consequent actions.

− Data AIS insertion in receive direction.

− 8 kHz timing removal in receive direction.
A detected failure in the transmit signal activates the following consequent actions.
− Data AIS insertion in transmit direction (configurable for the contradirectional port type
only).
− 8 kHz timing removal in transmit direction (contradirectional port type).
− 8 kHz timing removal in receive direction (codirectional port type).
5.3 Protection
5.3.1 Subnetwork Connection and linear Trail Protection

LECO1 supports 1+1 linear trail protection (LTP) and 1+1 inherently monitored subnetwork con-
nection protection (SNCP/I).
The difference between the two protection scenarios lies in the availability and usage of CAS.
• If CAS is available and used on the P12 transport path, the CAS AIS failure can be detected,
which is then the 1+1 linear trail protection. Linear trail protection protects against server fail-
ures and disconnected matrix connections (via CAS AIS detection).
Please note:
LTP requires that CAS is available in the P12 transport signal (P12 termination
mode = PCM30 or PCM30C) and that CAS is enabled in the user port configuration
(CAS AIS Supervision = true).
• If CAS is not available only the server layer defects can be detected, which is then the 1+1
SNCP/I protection. SNCP/I protects against server failures.
1+1 protection provides the 1+1 unidirectional protection. The operation type can be configured
to revertive or non-revertive.
The switching of the working and the protecting channel is done in sink direction only. On the
source side a fixed bridge is used.

5.3.2 Protection Configuration

P0-nc protection switching takes place in the LECO1 cross connect function.
Protection switching action can be driven by two different request types:
• Traffic signal requests:
− Signal fail (SF)
The SF state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal on the transport unit
reports a signal failure, e.g. loss of signal.
− CAS-AIS
The CAS signaling pattern abcd of the received signal exhibits an AIS, i.e. abcd = 1111.
− Signal degraded (SD)
The SD state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal on the transport unit
reports a degraded signal, e.g. BER 10-5.
• External command requests:
− Forced switch to working
− Forced switch to protecting
− Manual switch to working
− Manual switch to protecting
Note that a forced switch is executed even when there is a failure on the target signal. A manual
switch is executed only if the target signal exhibits no degradation or a less severe degradation
than the active signal.
The external command requests are maintenance functions, i.e. they are not stored in the units
database.
It is possible to check the status of the protection switch (working, protecting circuit) via the CTP
status function.

For more information on cross connections and protection switching please refer to
[1KHW002467] User Manual “TDM Services”.

8.3.4 AP: / unit-x / port-y, Fault Management

For a description of the general aspects of the

− “Fault Management - Status”, and

− “Fault Management - Configuration”
FOX612/FOX611”. The following table lists the fault causes of the current AP.
Table 14: AP: / unit-x / port-y, Fault Management

Affecting Severity
AIS Alarm Indication Sig- Communica- Minor AIS failure.
nal From Tributary tion Alarm An alarm is set if the transmit signal
Interface has no octet timing and is an all-one
signal containing not more than 1 zero
during 15.6 ms (1000 bit).
The alarm is cleared when the trans-
mit signal has a valid octet timing or
contains more than 3 zeros in 15.6 ms
(1000 bit).
LOOT Loss Of Octet Timing Communica- Minor 8 kHz octet timing failure (codirec-
tion Alarm tional only).
An alarm is set if less than 6 violations
of the polarity alternation rule are
detected in 6 ms (48 octets).
The alarm is cleared if 6 or more viola-
tions of the polarity alternation rule
are detected in 6 ms (48 octets).
In the event of an octet timing failure
and the octet timing monitoring is
enabled, an AIS is inserted into the
data time slot.
The octet timing monitoring can be
disabled. If however the octet timing
is still active, it is used to insert the
octet aligned data into the data time
slot.

Table 14: AP: / unit-x / port-y, Fault Management (continued)

Affecting Severity
LOS Loss Of Signal Communica- Major Loss of the incoming transmit data
tion Alarm signal:
- Codirectional:
An alarm is set if no transitions of
the rectified input signal are
detected in 8 bit times (125 μs).
The alarm is cleared if at least 32
transitions occur in 16 bit times (250
μs).
- Contradirectional:
An alarm is set if no transitions of
the transmit data signal are
detected in the configured number
of bit times for the LOS detection
(see section 8.3.3.2 AP: / unit-x / port-y,
Configuration - Error Handling (contra-
directional only) (on page 33).
The alarm is cleared if a transition is
detected on the transmit data sig-
nal.
If the input signal fails, an AIS is
inserted into the data time slot (con-
figurable for the contradirectional
interface type).
It is configurable to disable the 8 kHz
octet timing signal towards the inter-
face during an active LOS alarm
(remote alarm indication to the DTE).
However, the data transmission to the
DTE remains active.
MFA Maintenance Func- Communica- Warning A maintenance function has been acti-
tion Active tion Alarm vated by the operator from the port
status.
RTSF Redundant Trail Sig- Communica- Minor Trail signal fail (TSF) from the P12
nal Failure tion Alarm transport unit is active, or
CAS AIS active (only available if CAS is
enabled).
In a protected connection the work-
ing OR the protecting path has failed.
In an unprotected connection this
fault cause is not applicable.
TSF Trail Signal Failure Communica- Major Trail signal fail (TSF) from the P12
tion Alarm transport unit is active, or
CAS AIS active (only available if CAS is
enabled).
In a protected connection the work-
ing AND the protecting path have
failed.
Please note:
The monitoring of the TSF and RTSF alarms is disabled by default.
